It only has the optical input and the auxiliary input. We run a Comcast converter hdmi to the TV, Sony Play Station 3 hdmi to the TV. Optical cable from TV to sound bar. Hope this helps.

Connect the soundbar to the HDTV using the optical cable. Anything playing on the TV will use the soundbar as the output. You will need 2 HDMI cables to connect the ROKU and your cable box. Helps?

as far as i know, most cable boxes are the same. here's how to set it up.first connect the soundbar to your TV using the optical cable.then connect the cable box to you TV with the HDMI cable.now in the TV settings, you have to select external speakers instead of the built-in speakers to use the soundbar as your speakers.

I believe you should connect your Roku directly to your TV. Then use your TV remote to switch to either HDMI 1, HDMI 2 or HDMI 3 (just depends on how many HDMI inputs you have on your TV).

I tried multiple splitters and unfortunately none of them worked. I ended up getting a tv that had more than one HDMI inputs and used one optical output to my sound bar.

I don't think so. What you need is a unit similar to this that has two inputs and one output. The cable box to one of the inputs and the tiki to the other input And the single output to your single input on your tv. There are several available on amazon for your needs.

You need THREE of the HDMI cables (not four like the other guy says). Connect one HDMI cable to the back of your cable box and the other end to the SAT/CABLE IN slot on the back of the subwoofer. Connect another HDMI cable from the back of the BluRay Player to the BD IN slot on the back of the subwoofer. The last HDMI cable goes from the HDMI OUT (located on the far right) to the HDMI 1 input on the back of your TV. Turn on the TV, make sure the input is set on HDMI 1, turn on the Soundbar system and select the device you want to watch (either the BD button for BluRay Disc or the SAT/CATV button for cable).

The only adapter I have connected is the Time Warner adapter, with the cable card. My TiVo box is hard wired w a Cat 5 to my Clear Wire Internet box. I'm able to access NetFlix, Pandora, Hulu & more w no problem and watch streaming TV.

You can use one HDMI cable and also use the digital audio input on your sound bar. Most cable boxes have the output the ps3 should as well.

Assuming your receiver has hdmi output and your using that, you will need another hdmi cable along with this one (so you have a total of three hdmi cables) and a hdmi splitter (one input and two outputs)Connect the current hdmi cable that is attached to TV1 from the receiver to the input of the splitter then connect the two new hdmi cables to the output of the splitter and into the inputs of TV1 and TV2

Connect the cable box straight to the tv and use an optical cable or audio cable to the recevier from the cable box

Use your A/V receiver as a wireless hub. You then run cat 5 cables to other components. Good luck

I use a Roku, Apple TV, etc. and connect them all to the TV with an HDMI cable, then let the pass through to the receiver handle the rest. Just remember you can shut off the TV speakers and run surround only if you'd like. There's a button for that on the remote. In my case, I paired this with s 6500 series Samsung TV, so the remote can handle both, which is convenient. Great receiver / DVD unit for the money.

I used a wired ethernet cable from the cable companies modem box which plugs into the back of the tv. My tv is mounted on the wall so I had to snake the wire up the wall, along with cable, power lines and hdmi from my bluray player.

You cannot use this for that purpose; this is an "HDMI splitter", which was built to take one HDMI source and output that to a maximum of 4 HDTV's (like in a sports bar). Because what you want is surround sound from all three devices (and without knowing the type of receiver you have) your options are: - If your Receiver has only one or two HDMI inputs - you will need to add a "HDMI Switch", to accommodate all three devices. - If your Receiver has no HDMI inputs - it is better to get a new Receiver with atleast 3 HDMI inputs. - If your Receiver has three or more HDMI inputs - you are fine, just connect your devices to the Receiver. I hope this helps....

Cable box goes directly to TV. The optical plug goes from sound bar to cable box. HDMI cable from game unit to bar. We used HDMI 1 for GAME UNIT. Then HDMI output on bar goes to TV. There may be an easier way but this works well.

Most digital cable boxes have optical outputs now. If yours has it, hook the optical cable between your cable box and the sound bar and you should be good to go.
